Lots of good news on the outer brook trout pond front – several of them have been fishing really well, with some good sized fish to boot.
The picture of the two brookies in this post were supplied by TTL guest Ryan Patalano. He caught and released some spectacular brook trout at a Pittsburg outer pond whose identity will remain concealed …
It’s always great seeing a father and son have fun on the river, and that’s exactly what Tom and Holten Flinders did with our guide Angus Boezeman yesterday on the Connecticut River’s Trophy Stretch. Nice brownie Tom!
Looks like spring is here to stay – it finally feels like fishing weather, and we now have plenty of insect life to keep the trout busy. The grip-n-grin pic is of a beautiful Connecticut River ‘bow from this week. Thank you to Chuck DeGray of North Country Fly Shop for the photo.
Fishing for brook trout on Pittsburg’s outer ponds can be a good option when things aren’t exactly clicking on the river or the lakes. N.H. Fish & Game stocked some of the ponds this week and the gates are open on some of the Connecticut Lakes Headwaters’s logging roads, but make sure you check the list because not all of them are open.
Pretty cool and informative blog post by Stephanie Gould on the Flyaway} NH website on her experience being guided by Tall Timber’s own Angus Boezeman last weekend. He’s a legend in New England, and this article is just further proof of that.

What a difference a day makes – that’s how the saying goes … From 70 degrees and beautiful sun to 40 degrees and rainy, but this is good weather for fishing, and salmon fishing in particular.
